REVIEW 2023

This was the Future Medicine Science Match in 2023

Turning Research into Health - An Ecosystem for Innovations in Cell and Gene Therapy

The Future Medicine Science Match took place on 9 November 2023 as an all-day conference, at the bcc Berlin Congress Center with a network event afterwards.

In addition to the conference programme the participants expected an exclusive lunch talk taking a deep dive on the transformative potential of cell and gene therapies in the battle against cancer. With representatives from administration, science, and industry, we discussed conditions for an innovation-friendly research environment, and how such a framework can be created.

Again the participants voted on their favourite pitch in 2023: The best short presentation of each session of the Future Medicine Science Match was chosen by all attendees live during the event.

In four vibrant sessions we focused on:

• Societal and medical need: new gene- and cell-based therapies
• Cooperation of academia and industry
• Building startups
• Venture creation and commercialisation of discoveries: best practice models
• National strategy for cell and gene therapy
